Posing the little guys to a more relaxed rest pose for the anatomy refinement and the following scale work.

Continuing with the character work. Tighten up the bracer, scaled up the rings, did a surfacing pass on the leather and added wear&tear. All UVd and nearly ready for texturing(can not wait..). Minor tweaks ahead such as detail on the stitching and few minor intersections. Will get this done and move onto the next part.

While working on this barbarian, I went over the TOPOLOGY of the hand.

You can see lots of video PREVIEWS(only 30secs. due to limitation from patreon) of the videos and the content that I put there.

Big thanks to Ian for always helping with the painful tasks( and not only!)

As I have renewed the character work on my Diablo II Barbarian, I wanted to create a torch for him. These are parts 01, 02 and 03. 

In the first video I go over:
- modelling part
- blockout
- UVs

I will eventually not only create a real time/ rendered version but also prep this guy for 3d printing so the flame had to be sculpted. 

In this part of the series I go over:
- cloth wrikle sculpting
- adjusting everything as well as 
- sculpting the flame



Finally in this video I go over the detailing and the surfacing of the torch. I show how I:
- approach the detailing of the cloth
- applying the texture( using tileable alphas) 

I will also show how to:
- make a custom alpha tileable 
- approach the detailing of the wooden handle 
- approach the detailing of the rope 

All in real time. More to come!

Introducing >>> COLLECTIONS <<< feature to my Patreon Page.

Polishing the little guy before stepping up. Photoshoot nearing..

Here's a sample from this little tutorial of this decorative frame that I did for my patreons. I wanted to say Thank you for following and learning. I really appreciate it.

Full video can be seen on my patreon page. This is only part 01 as you can clearly see this is just a frame.
